==Promethean similarities to Spartans==
Where the prometheans the same as spartans? Because they seen to act as super soldiers but the book doesn't really gives a specification about it

:Not likely they were forerunner warrior servants and the two were separated by thousands of years[[User:Halofan1234|#@lof@n1234]] 23:21, 2 February 2011 (EST)

Nope, totally different. SPARTANS are humans augmented by cybernetics and whatnot, Prometheans are Forerunners (which have been extinct for millenia)[[User talk:SPARTAN-347|SPARTAN-347]] 00:48, 3 February 2011 (EST)

I think he meant are they analogous, in which case I still don't think so. Spartans are a group of elite supersoldiers. Prometheans are more akin to godlike generals, revered by the Forerunner people and with almost supreme authority. I doubt you could find a Spartan leading vast fleets and legions. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 05:02, 3 February 2011 (EST)

Are Prometheans organic beings? They look like robots, but the article makes them seem like they are Forerunners themselves. <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 22:05, 20 July 2012 (EDT)

:What we fight are Promethean Knights, not actual Forerunner Prometheans. Cortana remarked in the E3 showing when a Knight is encountered "Whatever it is it's definitely NOT organic!" So no, they're constructs. The actual warrior class, however, are organic.[[User talk:Ocean Soul|Ocean Soul]] 22:10, 20 July 2012 (EDT)
== Background ==
The Background references both the original Promethean warrior class and the artificial Promethean constructs which appear in Halo 4 (of which we know very little about at this stage). Shouldn't they be separated out?--[[User talk:Retriokillswitch|Retriokillswitch]] 18:32, 18 September 2012 (EDT)
:No. They are already sorted as Promethean units (constructs) from actual Promethean warriors in the article. I think its fine the way it is.--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 20:20, 18 September 2012 (EDT)
:*I consider the "mechanical" word should be taken away. Wolfkill said clearly "they are not robots". Some other term should be used until we know what they are, like "unknown variant". [[User talk:Siul S-249|Siul S-249]] 18:24, 23 October 2012 (EDT)
== The Didact ==
In the "History" section, it mentioned that Cortana and John killed the Didact. Is this absolutely confirmed that he's dead? I don't feel like it should be worded quite so until we know for sure.--[[User talk:Ocean Soul|Ocean Soul]] 02:12, 12 November 2012 (EST)
:Agreed. The Didact tumbles into the Composer's beam - given the purpose of the Composer, I think it's ambiguous whether the Didact survived or not. And honestly, I think he has huge potential to be a great villain in the future still. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 06:37, 12 November 2012 (EST)
== Current Status ==
So, what do you think the current status of the Prometheans is, are they all dead, or did they travel with the Covenant?--[[Special:Contributions/216.107.172.150|216.107.172.150]] 02:42, 24 March 2013 (EDT)
== Actual prometheans? ==
So I understand that the composer turned organic prometheans into the Mechanical ones we see in Halo 4 but are watchers and crawlers actual prometeans or just AIs? [[Special:Contributions/69.174.161.227|69.174.161.227]] 04:37, 30 April 2013 (EDT)
:It hasn't been adressed by any official sources, but I'm operating under the assumption that if it vaporises itself, it uses a composed mind. Since neither the watchers or crawlers do this, I don't think they have one. This is just a theory, however. Always use the DMR.

== New Page ==
Is it past time we created a distinct page for mechanical Promethean constructs? {{unsigned|Japeth555}}
You mean like the [[Promethean Knight|page]] that is already in exists? [[User:Alertfiend|Alertfiend]] - Warning, my comments may appear passive aggressive. <small>([[User talk:AlertFiend|Converse]]) </small> 21:24, 24 July 2016 (EDT)
That's the page for Knights. Knights, soldiers, crawlers, watchers, and even the Warden are all referred to as Prometheans collectively. -Japeth555
==Image Request from Mythos==
Is anyone capable of getting the Forerunner Rate images from Mythos pages 28 and 29? It's the same with the War Sphinx 136/7 Thanks in advance. Primordial (talk) 19:59, 30 June 2017 (EDT)
